What is a millennial? And what are people talking about them not getting job.

Am millenial, I also think this is bad, the goal of an entrepreneur is to invest money for a return on investment, no matter what investment this is, it is the product or service that provides the return, somebody has to manufacture this product, or provide the service. If everybody is an entrepreneur, or everybody is a manager, how will anything ever get done. As a young person living in a country where manufacturing is most definitely dying, and many experts see as already dead, the options for employment are rapidly declining, we have an abundance of highly educated young people, which is great, but also a large deficit in people willing to do skilled manual labour such as welding and construction. "Unskilled" labour is rapidly dying in this country as they are being replaced by PLC systems (Robotics) which will spell trouble for many of the people of the previous generation who are not at retirement age as well. An understanding must be taught to millenials in which people of all walks of life are required to sustain the world we have built, a supervisor must have people to supervise, an investor must have something to invest in, a CEO is a CEO because he has a company to run. It is good that people do the best that they can to reach the goals that they set for themselves, but we as people need to learn that all occupations are important, and that there is no shame in profiting from the sweat of your brow.

Also, I know and have met a frightening amount of people that enroll in useless university/college degrees just for the sake of having a degree at the end, if you graduate with a pointless degree which earns no job prospects, you don't really get to complain about not being able to find a professional career
